SHIPMENT NOT EXPECTED UNTIL FALL 2006 Barn owls are among the owl family’s most distinctive members. They are the only North American owl with a heart-shaped face and their name comes from a tendency to roost and nest in the relative security of barns or other manmade structures. Many Texas deer hunters have had a fright when opening the door of a deer stand before daylight and spooking a resident barn owl. California resident artist Sherri Russell Meline is a Wisconsin native who receive part of her education in Japan. She’s been professional artist since 1970 and painted the 2003 Texas Waterfowl Stamp Print and the 2003 Quail Stamp Print. Her art was selectively to grace the 2006 Federal Duck Stamp.
